There are workarounds because this type of thing is a common problem.
Search the archives of this list and you should find something.  Solutions
with problems with keyboard events may be similar enough to help you.  I
know I've pointed people to resources on issues similar to this.  I'll see
if I can find them later tonight when i get back to my computer.

So are you saying I'm out of lick right now? The discussion is happening
at Adobe?

It's in manager logic. MouseOver shows a cursor, I want the cursor not to
appear if the shift key is down.

hmm, I don't see any other way of attacking this problem the way I have it
programmed right now.

Well, not that I think about it, I guess I could settle for showing the
mouse but not letting the action on mouseDown occur.

Thanks Alex,

Peace, Mike
